Fangskin can be found on the second level of the Claw Viper Temple. Just like Coldworm the Burrower, he resides right next to a quest-related item but is not required for any quest in particular.
Full Stats: Fangskin
Type: Salamander
Special Attributes: Lightning Enchanted, Extra Fast
Found in: Claw Viper Temple Level 2
Quest: Fangskin is not necessary to kill to complete the Tainted Sun quest, but he’s found in the room with the golden chest from which you must recover the Viper Amulet, so killing him while you’re there is never a bad idea.
Comments: Fangskin is another monster who was made much easier in v1.09. Prior to that patch he and his minions were very dangerous in the confined area, thanks to their solid damage and swarming, stun-locking, speedy attacks. Their damage and ability to stun lock were turned well down in v1.09 though, greatly reducing the danger.
